I will be giving my take on the comics I read this week. I won't be giving out a score, I'll instead just be giving my general thoughts and opinions. If yours differ, I would love to hear them! leave them in the comments below

Be Warned, Spoilers Ahead!

Batman Inc. #8- The local comic shop I went to was charging $14 for a single issue and I was not about to spend that when I hadn't read any of Batman Inc. before. Needless to say Damian dies somehow and Batman is sad, most likely. Wouldn't it be messed up if Batman was just indifferent or pretty stoked that his son died?

I&#Array;m a ghooooooost!

The Fury of Firestorm #17- I've always really liked Firestorm as a character. I think his powers are cool and both Jason and Ronnie are interesting characters. However, The Fury of Firestorm 17 suffers from the same problems that this entire series has since the relaunch of the new 52. It's not a particular writer's fault but Firestorm is the one comic to my knowledge that went through a semi-reboot right after the New 52 reboot. You started with multiple firestorms of different nations and ronnie and jason were separate, cool premise but sadly not well executed. But now Ronnie and Jason are fused as the one and only firestorm which should create dramatic tension but just falls flat. One of the main problems this series has had is with dialogue. Now i've know plenty of football players in my day but none are so dumb that they refer to football in anyway they can in daily life. didn't you learn anything from pre new 52 superboy? Yelling TOUCHDOWN! is not a catch phrase nor is it cool. secondly I think a big problem with this series is unless you have a particularly great writer, high school heroes suck. I am 23 years old, not that far out of high school and I fucking hate teenagers I can't even imagine how older people feel about the angst teen drama thrown out sometimes. And if your the one person who is reading this thinking, "teenagers cant be that bad." I dare you to watch one teens react video on youtube and not go out and punch an innocent in the face. Having said that Dan Jurgens is great on the art and does his best with the writing. It's not his fault, he is just responsible for digging firestorm out of this mess

Field Goal!!!

The Flash #17- Well as usual, The art was great but the writing was just ok. Honestly I wasn't a fan of this Gorilla Warfare storyline anyway. I just never liked that Grodd was now a gorilla with super speed instead of having telekinesis and mind altering powers.But maybe being stranded in the speed force will alter his abilities a little? Also not a big fan of Barry just being able to dip into the speed force and bail when ever he wants. Part of what made The Flash (all versions of him) cool was that he had limits. Very scary limits, like if he went to fast he would get sucked into the speed force and be stuck! And wally couldn't vibrate through things without them exploding. But in the end they somehow find a way to push past these limits for a little but those limits are still there. But now Barry just does whatever the hell he wants and has no real limits. But on the plus side it's over and were on our way towards the Reverse Flash which should be cool!

Hawkeye #8- Bro it was super great issue bro! if you're not reading Hawkeye do yourself a favor and start buying it this second bro! Seriously there isn't a single bad thing I can say about this comic. It's funny, action packed, badass, and just over all a great time...Bro

Just a great cover

Uncanny X-Force #2- Ok first off, Puck is pretty awesome; but I still have no idea what his powers are. And yes, I could just wikipedia it but I'd rather be told in story then having to go out and research it. Secondly Fantomex dating himself is again one of the highlights of comics in the past couple years. It's just so hilarious and perfect and I love it. Also Bishop is apparently fused with the bear force in the future! (which is what I'm assuming takes over for the phoenix?) The art was great and the writing keeps the pace up but issue 2 is done and I'm still not totally sure why this team exists. I loved Remender's UXF so of course I was gonna check this out, but if it doesn't pick up story wise soon I may have to drop it.

When I think about you I touch myself

Guardians of the Galaxy #.1- Great little Intro into Peter Quill's world. We learn about his mom, his Royal dad, and how a bunch of space aliens hate him! It's not til the very last page that we see the actual Guardians assembled, and even then they're mostly standing around not doing much. My one question is (and I'm hoping someone who reads this will know the answer) I read the Guardians of the Galaxy trade when they fought the cancerverse and all that jazz. And at the end of that Peter and Nova were stuck in the cancerverse that was seemingly destroyed. How and when did he get out? Anyway back to this issue, as I was saying great start. The writing by Bendis is strong and the art is of course beautiful thanks to Steve McNiven.

Aquaman #17- Let me start off by saying, Jesus! Atlantis has more backstabbers, traitors, shitty folk, and people vying for the throne than the past two seasons of Game of Thrones! having said that Aquaman continues his streak of badassness andtakes down some whalers, verbally bitch slaps some guy who is the Atlantis version of the hound (ya a lot of GoT references in this review), and still has time to talk politic with Amanda Waller. I'm really interested in what's going on with Mera and her run in with the cops. Also why exactly Atlantis doesn't like her. I know the Brightest Day version why, but does that still hold true? Geoff Johns is dominating this character on the writing front, Green Lantern won't be the same without him. Art wise, I definitely miss Ivan Reis, but Paul Pelletier is no slouch and offers up great art. Not to mention a pretty killer Splash Page.

Trident is my new preferred weapon for a zombie apocalypse

Uncanny Avengers #4- Ok let me talk about that last page first. Red Skull Onslaught are you freaking kidding me?! as crazy as that was be careful Mr. Remender you're treading on some dangerous and extremely exciting territories. Was it just me or have comics this month just let the bad guy slip away a little too easy? first the Joker just up and bails at the end of Death of the Family. And now Red Skull says, "peace late" to cap who is literally right next to him and vanishes into a puddle? I realize you want these villains out there for later stories, but come on there's got to be a better way to get them out in the world when you need them. Also Wolverine is out this entire issue so that leave Cap, Wanda, and Havok to do most of the battling; since Thor was possessed and Rogue shows up for two seconds, then gets her shit rocked. This team seems a little small, so I propose we bring in Quicksilver (no I will not let it go!). As I said before Remender's writing is still strong as he tip toes a delicate line towards the future. The art is hit and miss, sometimes its great and other times its just ok.
